Relive the Classic Battleship Game Now as an Online Slot Game

Battleship by IGT is an online slot played over five reels with up to 25 win lines on offer for players looking to cover the entire board with all winning possibilities. The theme itself needs little introduction, with the original Battleship being one of the most popular classics among older players for decades. Such players, and more recent fans, will be pleased to know that the slot recreates the original game absolutely perfectly through the use of innovative bonus rounds and other special features that can keep players entertained for hours on end.

For those that have never had the pleasure of the original Battleship board game, it set two opposing players and their fleets against each other with the aim being to destroy the other player’s pieces by seeking them out at random and inflicting enough damage to make them sink. Players will find all of the most common themes associated with the game across the reels, including carriers, frigates, submarines and destroyers, plus the regular IGT staple of playing card symbols – in this case the 9 through to Ace.

As mentioned, players can choose to play up to 25 win lines on each spin, with each having a maximum coin bet of $1 applied. Both coin values and the number of lines are adjustable meaning that fans of the original game will be able to set the game up to their liking, regardless of their bankroll. The largest pay out on a single spin is 5,000 coins which is naturally well worth winning regardless of the stakes in play.

The slot itself combines everything that players have come to know and love from IGT together with excellent use of the licence. Graphics are crisp and clear while gameplay is simply stunning and hugely enjoyable, but all of the primary functions are clearly inspired by the original property. First and foremost is the wild card symbol, which is represented by the Battleship game logo that originally adorned the box decades ago. There is also the standard issue scatter symbol which many Canadian players have come to expect from every online slot they encounter. It is represented by an actual battleship icon, with three or more allowing players access to the iconic Pick Your Battle feature. This is where the theme really comes to life, with players able to select from either the Winning Encounter game or the Sink the Fleet round. The first is standard online slot fare, with players being awarded free spins. The best part of this game is that all 25 win lines are in play, even if the player has only selected a single one in the main game. Sink the Fleet will appeal to fans of the licence, with the round faithfully recreating the act of sinking the opponents fleet, with cash prizes on offer.
